Strahinja Pavlović (Serbian Cyrillic: Страхиња Павловић; born 24 May 2001) is a Serbian professional footballer who plays as a defender for Partizan, on loan from AS Monaco.
Club career
Born in Šabac, Pavlović started out at local club Savacium. He officially joined the youth system of Partizan in the summer of 2015. In September 2018, Pavlović signed his first professional contract with the club, agreeing to a three-year deal.[1] He was promoted to the first team by manager Zoran Mirković ahead of winter preparations for the second half of the season.[2]
On 23 February 2019, Pavlović made his competitive senior debut for the club in a 3–0 home league win over Proleter Novi Sad, playing the full 90 minutes and receiving a yellow card in the process.[3] He quickly established himself in the team's starting lineup, collecting 15 official appearances and helping Partizan win the 2018–19 Serbian Cup.
At the beginning of the 2019–20 season, Pavlović confirmed himself as a first-team regular, forming a central defensive partnership with the experienced Bojan Ostojić. He was reportedly close to signing with Italian club Lazio near the end of the summer transfer window. However, the negotiations failed[4] and Pavlović signed a new five-year contract with Partizan.[5] He scored his first career goal in a controversial 2–1 home league loss to Voždovac on 6 October.[6]
On 18 December 2019, it was officially announced that Partizan and Monaco had agreed terms for the transfer of Pavlović over the forthcoming winter transfer window.[7] Pavlović would remain on loan with Partizan until June 2020.[8]
International career
Pavlović was capped for Serbia at under-17 and under-19 levels. He made his national under-21 team debut on 6 September 2019, playing the full 90 minutes in a 1–0 away loss against Russia in their 2021 UEFA European Under-21 Championship qualifier.[9]
Style of play
Pavlović is a left footed centre-back, known for physical power and aggressive style of defending. He's been praised for his strong mentality, but also criticized due to poor positional awareness. One of his trademarks offensively is running with the ball through the middle.
